by Ann Ehrlich, Carol L. Schroeder, Laura Ehrlich

This book deserves negative stars because it contains not just countless typos, but an astonishing amount of false information. I am an MD shifting careers and this was required reading for a certification course. I only finished it so that I could have a more complete record of all the errors to present to the publisher.

I'm amazed I forgot to mark this one as read! But I loved using it. It wasn't an exciting adventure story, but I definitely did stay up late reading it! And it got me an A+ in the course so I'm happy :) If anyone remembers the date of the last day of the first semester, then I can put that as the date I finished it. . .

I read this as a requirement for a certification I did. Just a excellent textbook that made me happy to learn about the body. I also recommend the workbook and it came with a cd that had additional information.

This book is laid out perfectly. I had to squeeze these chapters into a 5 week class, and there's no way I could've gotten it done if this book wasn't so organized. I really liked it!
